Chapter 376 The human heart is not enough and the snake swallows the elephant.
So many people from the Duan family came, and they did nothing. Yet after just one night, Duan Qinghua successfully changed his fate and was completely free from the wheelchair.
But when the other people who were not present last night saw Duan Yunting sitting in a wheelchair, their expressions were very colorful.
After staying up all night, Duan Yunting felt even weaker. He was wearing a thin short-sleeved shirt yesterday, but today he not only put on a coat but also draped a blanket over his legs. Curled up in a wheelchair, he looked weak and frail, as if he had aged several years.
Yesterday, he and Ke Yueyao didn't look so out of place standing together, but now she stood next to him like a girl serving her father.
Although being stared at with strange eyes by others, Ke Yueyao not only did not feel uncomfortable at all, but the look she gave Duan Yunting became even more affectionate.
When he dies, all his money will be hers!
She had good intentions, but she never expected that although Duan Yunting looked in poor health, he could live to be a hundred years old.
Duan Yunting was touched to see that she didn't dislike him at all, but was even better than before. He felt grateful that he had finally met his true love after wasting half his life, and he held her hand even tighter.
Yang Fan inadvertently glanced at the two people's rapidly changing expressions, and an ambiguous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
To help Duan Qinghua change his fate, Old Man Duan paid Yang Fan 50 million yuan in compensation. She was very satisfied with the compensation and even looked at this stubborn old man with more favor.
Old Master Duan asked everyone else to leave the yard, leaving only Yang Fan, Yan Qing and a little white tiger.
"There's no one here anymore. Mr. Duan, please just say whatever you want to say," Yang Fan said.
Mr. Duan's eyes flickered, and after a few seconds of hesitation, he finally said what he was thinking, "Master Yang, do you know the art of longevity?"
"Mr. Duan, birth, aging, illness and death are the laws of nature. Those who forcefully violate the laws of nature will be punished by God."
"I……"
"You've already gained a few decades of extra life, don't be too greedy."
Yang Fan smiled slightly, but the smile did not reach his eyes, "Human greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant."
Old Master Duan's face turned pale, the corners of his lips twitched. He wanted to say something but when he met Yang Fan's eyes that saw through everything, he couldn't say anything.
……
The Duan family came slowly and left quickly.
Duan Qinghua successfully changed his fate, and they all left. Duan Qinghua also went back with them. He hadn't been back for such a long time, and now that he was well, he wanted to go back first.
When he left, he asked Xiaolin's parents to reserve the room for him and that he would be back after a while.
Ji Xingye and Lian Chun, who came with them, also went back with them.
"Didn't they say that someone from the Duan family is coming? And what about the two powerful Taoist priests? And what about Duan Qinghua?"
Han Musen, who had been out all day, came to Yang Fan's house for dinner. He looked around but didn't see Duan Qinghua. He looked a little regretful, "Could it be that I missed something exciting again?"
Xiao Lin nodded, "Yes, you missed it. You don't know how exciting yesterday was."
"Sister Linlin, come and share this with your brother."
"VIP content, please recharge."
Han Musen transferred a hundred yuan to her without hesitation, "I'll buy a deluxe version. Tell me how the master changed Duan Qinghua's fate last night."
Once the money arrives, everything will be easy.
Xiao Lin didn't even bother to eat. She told Han Musen what happened last night in a very emotional manner, and even mentioned the bullying that happened to Lao Hei during the day.
"Damn it! How dare that old bastard bully our old black man!"
Hearing that Lao Hei was bullied, Han Musen was very angry, and turned around to vent his anger on Yan Qing and Tang Yuanyuan, "The master was away all day yesterday, and you let people bully Lao Hei. You are useless."
Tang Yuanyuan felt a little guilty. She didn't dare to look up and just ate her meal in silence.
Yan Qing looked up at him with emotionless eyes. Han Musen felt a little short of breath when he looked at him, but thinking that they couldn't even take care of a little "cat", he looked back very stubbornly.
"What are you looking at, am I wrong?"
"You'd better not go out tonight." Han Musen was stunned. "Are you threatening me?"
Is there any justice in the world? This man dared to threaten Master Yang in front of him.
"Master, Yan Qing threatened me!" Han Musen turned around and complained to Yang Fan.
Yang Fan didn't even raise his eyes. "He is reminding you."
Remind him? Could it be that he would encounter some danger if he went out at night? Han Musen thought.
"Master, will I encounter any danger if I go out at night?"
"It's not a big deal."
Han Musen breathed a sigh of relief.
"It means that you will be slashed."
Han Musen: ...It’s too early to relax.
Knowing that Yan Qing was not threatening him but was helping him to tell fortunes out of kindness, Han Musen thanked him with a grin, completely different from the way he had been scolding him just now.
Yan Qing said nothing, took out the payment QR code and handed it to him, "One thousand yuan, pay."
Yang Fan picked up a dish with chopsticks and said, "Five hundred is mine, remember to split the bill."
...Han Musen transferred the money obediently.
The others couldn't help but laugh out loud, and Yang Fan and Yan Qing also had smiles on their faces.
"Wow... Lao Hei, they bullied me." Han Musen hugged the little white tiger and pretended to cry and complain.
The little white tiger was eating and pushed him away with disgust.
Han Musen's heart was broken. "Lao Hei, I did this all for you."
"The child is still young and cannot bear such a heavy responsibility." Yang Fan said something fair.
Han Musen: “Oh.”
"Hahaha..." They laughed even louder.
Talking about what happened last night, Fu Cancan smiled and then remembered what Duan Zijun said last night, "Yang Fan, is Duan Qinghua's father still in contact with that illegitimate child?"
Yang Fan hummed softly, filled a bowl of soup and drank it slowly.
"The Ji family and the Lian family are frequent visitors to the Duan family, so it is not surprising that Duan Yunting can often see Duan Zijun." Qiao Ci'an said.
Except for Yang Fan and Yan Qing, everyone else looked at Qiao Ci'an with curiosity, as they felt there was gossip.
Tang Yuanyuan had been practicing Taoism for too short a time and only knew that these metaphysical families existed, but he didn't know much about them.
Qiao Ci'an thought for a moment and said, "Let's put it this way. The purpose of the existence of the Ji family and the Lian family, these metaphysical families, is to serve these wealthy families."
From the past to the present, the groups served by several metaphysical families have always been the powerful and wealthy.
However, with the rapid development of the scientific and technological era, metaphysics has gradually disappeared from the public's sight. In addition to some objective factors, the more important reason is that the current ecological environment has been severely damaged, the spiritual energy is thin, it is difficult to practice Taoism, and each generation is worse than the previous one.
Those metaphysical families were not like other Taoist temples and sects. They accepted disciples from all over the world. They relied solely on bloodline inheritance.
In a large family, there are only a limited number of people who have the spiritual energy to study metaphysics. In some families, there is even a situation where a generation of people are ordinary people who are unable to practice.
Therefore, in the heyday of metaphysics in the past, the powerful and wealthy would beg to cooperate with people from metaphysical families, and in their cooperation, people from metaphysical families were in a dominant position.
But now, in the cooperation between the metaphysical families and the powerful and wealthy, the latter have taken a dominant position, and the former have invisibly become their laborers.
It was naturally normal for Duan Yunting to be able to see Duan Zijun after his death.
Ji Xingye and Lian Chun came with the Duan family, and they also wanted to leave with them and send them back.
